Two More Weeks Only?

A friend just reminded me that if all goes well, I have only about 2 more weeks in Singapore. Which kind of makes this packing process seem more urgent. I need to find a bigger backpack now.

To all my friends who are feeling heartache on my behalf:

I don't have a car and I can't afford to bring all the books down to be sold/donated. I still have a lot of packing to be done before I go, and I need to report for work on 1st September. There's a lot to be done for the Dubai project before I go, so I will have limited time to pack. In light of this, I would really appreciate it if everyone could stop telling me not to throw away the books. It hurts me a lot to sacrifice these books - but I need to do this. As soon as possible, because if you look through the list, you can see that it's close to 100 titles that I need to get rid of. And I'm still not done yet.

If you would like to help, please look through the list on a regular basis and tell me which books you would like. I would appreciate it a lot more if you could make it convenient for me to pass you the books before the end of the week.
